Ban training generative AI with creative works without artists' consent

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 29 October 2025

The government should make it illegal for AI developers to train generative AI models on creative works - such as art, music, writing and film - without the creator's explicit consent. Artists deserve control and fair compensation for the use of their work. For too long, AI developers have gotten away with what we think is the effective theft of millions of creative works without permission, as a way of training their generative AI models. If a regular person redistributed this material, they could face thousands of pounds in fines. Artists deserve protection, control, and compensation for how their work has been used without their consent, while tech companies currently face no legal accountability.

Question 10651 — services publics

France · National Assembly · 28 October 2025

Mme Marietta Karamanli attire l'attention de Mme la ministre déléguée auprès du ministre de l'économie, des finances et de la souveraineté industrielle, énergétique et numérique, chargée de l'intelligence artificielle et du numérique, sur les services publics dématérialisés. La Défenseure des droits a déjà alerté en 2016, 2022 et encore en 2025 sur les effets négatifs de la dématérialisation des services publics, qui creuse les inégalités d'accès aux droits, notamment pour les publics vulnérables. En 2025, 61 % des Français rencontrent des difficultés dans leurs démarches administratives, contre 39 % en 2016. Moins d'une personne sur deux parvient à faire ses démarches en ligne sans aide et 36 % ont besoin d'une aide ponctuelle. Selon son étude (2025), ces difficultés touchent les plus jeunes comme les plus âgés. Les moins de 34 ans et les plus de 55 ans font majoritairement face à des difficultés sur les démarches en ligne : 51 % des 18-34 ans et 53 % des 55-79 ans. Elle formule plusieurs recommandations, entre autres, de maintenir des guichets physiques accessibles à tous, de former et d'accompagner les usagers, notamment via des médiateurs numériques, de concevoir des interfaces inclusives tenant compte des handicaps, de la langue et du niveau de littératie numérique (entendue comme la capacité à comprendre et à utiliser) et d'évaluer systématiquement l'impact des réformes numériques sur les publics les plus fragiles. Elle lui demande quelles mesures le Gouvernement entend mettre en œuvre, selon quel calendrier et avec quels moyens.

Question 10595 — numérique

France · National Assembly · 28 October 2025

Mme Christine Engrand appelle l'attention de Mme la ministre déléguée auprès du ministre de l'économie, des finances et de la souveraineté industrielle, énergétique et numérique, chargée de l'intelligence artificielle et du numérique, sur la progression alarmante des cyberviolences, notamment à l'encontre des mineurs et des femmes et sur l'insuffisance persistante des moyens de prévention, de protection et de prise en charge des victimes. Selon le dernier rapport de l'Observatoire national de la délinquance et des réponses pénales (ONDRP), plus de 400 000 faits de cyberharcèlement et de cyberviolences ont été recensés en 2024, soit une augmentation de 30 % par rapport à 2022. Les jeunes sont particulièrement exposés : une enquête de l'UNICEF publiée en 2024 révèle qu'un adolescent sur cinq déclare avoir déjà été victime de cyberharcèlement, avec des conséquences psychologiques majeures comme l'anxiété, la dépression ou des tentatives de suicide. Les femmes sont elles aussi surreprésentées parmi les victimes de cyberviolences sexistes et sexuelles, notamment via la diffusion non consentie d'images intimes, phénomène en forte hausse. Malgré l'adoption récente de lois renforçant la répression du harcèlement en ligne, les moyens opérationnels demeurent insuffisants. Les plateformes sociales tardent à retirer les contenus illicites, malgré leurs obligations légales et les cellules de signalement comme Pharos restent saturées, avec des délais de traitement dépassant souvent plusieurs semaines. En parallèle, l'accompagnement des victimes est encore trop limité : seules quelques associations spécialisées disposent de moyens dédiés et l'éducation au numérique responsable est très inégalement dispensée dans les établissements scolaires. La Défenseure des droits a récemment alerté sur ces lacunes, rappelant que le droit à la dignité, à la sécurité et à la protection des mineurs doit être pleinement garanti dans l'espace numérique. Elle lui demande donc quelles mesures le Gouvernement entend prendre pour renforcer significativement la lutte contre les cyberviolences, en particulier en accroissant les moyens humains et financiers de la plateforme Pharos, garantissant le retrait rapide des contenus illicites par les plateformes numériques, développant un accompagnement pluridisciplinaire et territorial des victimes et généralisant la formation à la prévention des cyberviolences dès le collège.
